On the functional limits for partial sums under stable law

preprint2015arXivOpen access

Abstract

For the partial sums (Sn)(S_n) of independent random variables we define a stochastic process sn(t):=(1/dn)∑k≤[nt](Sk/k−μ)s_n(t):=(1/d_n)\sum_{k \le [nt]} ({S_k}/{k}-μ) and prove that (1/log⁡N)∑n≤N(1/n)I{sn(t)≤x}→Gt(x)a.s.(1/{\log N})\sum_{n\le N}(1/n)\mathbf {I}\left\{s_n(t)\le x\right\} \to G_t(x)\quad \text{a.s.} if and only if (1/log⁡N)∑n≤N(1/n)P(sn(t)≤x)→Gt(x)(1/{\log N})\sum_{n\le N} (1/n)\mathbb{P}\left(s_n(t)\le x\right) \to G_t(x), for some sequence (dn)(d_n) and distribution GtG_t. We also prove an almost sure functional limit theorem for the product of partial sums of i.i.d. positive random variables attracted to an αα-stable law with α∈(1,2]α\in (1,2].
